Toonces drives a Ranger . . . . just not very well.
The scariest thing about it is that it not squatting a bit...
That's the old "2x4s for shocks" trick.

That truck (or "thing") has some serious Gypsy vibes going on.

Its probably better to be self deprecating than self defecating.

We got a booooomb taco place local to me. The lady who runs the couple stores they have was born/raised in Mexico.. then moved to L.A and did the whole street-taco thing.. and then decided nice weather doesn't over-power bad government.. packed up shop and moved to Maine. So good. The cowboy burrito is to die for.

Wow, I bet that thing is crazy heavy. Cannot imagine what they used it for... oil field maybe?
Maybe this guy once lived in it, used it to work too, and when it broke, he made it his home. @superjay might just be right about the taco thing. Awful decor/wonderful food.

They're even better when you get them in a little surf town in Mexico. :icon_hornsup:

Do you put maple syrup on your tacos?

I'll go on the record and say that Maine maple syrup is the superior syrup, followed by Vermont and then America's hat.

Not only have we been boiling tree secretions down for longer than those bastardized bacon eaters... but they've also spent too much of their focus on hockey to truly master the art of syrup making.


All that out of the way though.... yes. We drown our tacos in it.. flavor coffee with it... use it as a milk substitute for cereal.. it's a pretty decent all purpose skin moisturizer.. and it sure beats the hell right out of mothers 'back to black' for restoring your automotive trim!

And it gives a decent buzz, too. It's just hard to keep lit.

In theory, theory and practice are the same. In practice, they are different.
